Bareng Bareng Penestanan Kaja, Bali
At the end of a world trip our friends Jen and Griff Jones and their boys Bao and Kama, had stopped in Bali as a final
stop before heading home to Oahu, Hawaii. A casual discussion about building costs in Bali turned into the leasing of land.
Soon the design of their eco- luxe 222 square meters 2400 square feet 3 bedroom 2 bath dream house began. Ninety percent of the design and construction process happened while The Jones were in Hawaii.
Alejandra sourced a hand hewn traditional teak heritage farmhouse called a Limasan In East Java. The (unwanted) post-and-lintel structures come apart and we transport them by cargo boat timber by timber.
Set in rice paddies, Bareng Bareng is a spectacular example of harmony between the clients the land and our artisan builders creating a one of a kind family home which honors the heritage of Indonesia and respects the natural world. Modern in spirit. Poetic and practical.
Bareng Bareng opens up completely, We have perfected the use of thatch roofs And feel they are the most artistic and sustainable roof we can use. We also believe that The ability to create these roofs is being lost, since only Balinese craftspeople know how to Put them up. Others shy away,
